Japanese Cheesecake

The best way to describe a Japanese cheesecake is that everything about this cake is subtle. The salty richness of cream cheese is mellowed down to the perfect base flavor for a cake that is sparingly sweet, soft, aromatic and almost cloud-like, leaving no guilty-feelings afterwards. This cake is at its best on the day, depending on what you prefer because a night’s rest in the refrigerator will turn it into a dense, cheesy and addictively decadent dessert.
